Listmates,
The problem with aol.com subscribers either not receiving
any or sporadic LNCNURSE email has been resolved.
One of aol's postmasters has assisted us in identifying and
resolving the problem. This aol.com postmaster has requested
that his/her email address not be given out. I will respect that.
However, I am willing to forward messages to that email
address on anyone's behalf.
For those of you who are interested here is a summary.
I have made a concerted conscientious effort to keep the context intact.
We have learned that AOL has a policy of SILENTLY discarding selected mail
messages as part of their ongoing efforts to fight spam. Unfortunately they
will not tell us what rules are used to determine if a particular message
will be discarded. They have only told us that the rules change daily and
that the total amount of mail coming from a particular server tends to
trigger their filters. Thus messages from listservers (which by definition
deliver lots of mail) are more likely to be dropped than normal messages.
We have been unable to find any official statement of this policy from AOL,
but we've seen numerous confirmations from other listowners and from our
helpful AOL postmaster. This AOL postmaster has created an open
door policy to be approached for any other problems or questions.
Respectfully submitted,
Nicole Marie Spring, RN
